Excerpt from Kate Greenaway I have a great many letters of his - one for nearly every day for three years, but they are all of the time of my early letters, before his great illness. Since - he has never written - as you will remember. I should like to have any letters in the Life, if one is written, that were thought desirable. I am not sure the later ones of mine are much in a literary way; but he did say some of the earlier ones 'ought to exist as long as the most beautiful of my drawings should - because they were also beauti ful.'

I feel so honoured by it, that I can only feel honoured for my name ever to appear near his. My dearest love to you. Katie. From the facsimile letter given in the following pages, it will be observed that Kate Greenaway later on developed a habit of frequently employing capital letters in unusual places. These, as a mere eccentricity, have been corrected in transcription. Our gratitude - may we say the gratitude of our readers also?
